The five dimensional version of the Green-Schwarz mechanism can be invoked to cancel U(1) anomalies on the boundaries of brane world models. In five dimensions there are two dual descriptions that employ either a two-form tensor field or a…
We develop Wigner - Weyl formalism for the lattice models. For the definiteness we consider Wilson fermions in the presence of $U(1)$ gauge field. The given technique reduces calculation of the two point fermionic Green function to solution…
We first generalise the standard Wigner function to Dirac fermions in curved spacetimes. Secondly, we turn to the Moyal quantisation of systems with constraints. Gravity is used as an example.
Any practical application of the Schwinger-Dyson equations to the study of $n$-point Green's functions of a field theory requires truncations, the best known being finite order perturbation theory. Strong coupling studies require a…
This discussion examines recent developments in the theory of a Weyl-like, Cartan geometry with natural Schr\"odinger field behavior proposed previously. In that model, very nearly exactly a coupled Einstein-Maxwell- Schr\"odinger,…
The Schwinger model with $N_f \geq 2$ flavors is a simple example for a fermionic model with zero chiral condensate Sigma (in the chiral limit). We consider numerical data for two light flavors, based on simulations with dynamical chiral…
We give a global formulation of the coupling of four-dimensional scalar sigma models to Abelian gauge fields for the generalized situation when the "duality structure" of the Abelian gauge theory is described by a flat symplectic vector…
The Wilson formulation of fermions in lattice gauge theory provides a unified description of the chiral anomalies in the standard model. The discrete Dirac operator diagonalizes into a series of two by two blocks. In each block the possible…
By means of the Lee-Shrock transformation we generalize the 2D Gross-Neveu (GN$_2$) model to a U(1) gauge theory with charged fermion and scalar fields in 2D ($\chi U \phi_2$ model). The $\chi U \phi_2$ model is equivalent to the GN$_2$…
For a linear Dirac field on a globally hyperbolic static space-time the analytic continuation of its Wightman functions (Green functions) to Schwinger functions and back at zero and finite temperature is shown.
Working within the path-integral framework we first establish a duality between the partion functions of two $U(1)$ gauge theories with a theta term in $d=4$ space-time dimensions. Then, after a dimensional reduction to $d=3$ dimensions we…
We study by non perturbative techniques a vector, axial--vector theory characterized by a parameter which interpolates between pure vector and chiral Schwinger models. Main results are two windows in the space of parameters which exhibit…
Generalized Dirac monopoles in momentum space are constructed in even d+1 dimensions from the Weyl Hamiltonian in terms of Green's functions. In 3+1 spacetime dimensions, the (unit) charge of the monopole is equal to both the winding number…
The Bargmann-Wigner formalism is adapted to spherical surfaces embedded in three to eleven dimensions. This is demonstrated to generate wave equations in spherical space for a variety of antisymmetric tensor fields. Some of these equations…
A residual gauge symmetry, exhibited by light-front gauge theories quantized in a finite volume, is analyzed at the quantum level. Unitary operators, which implement the symmetry, transform the trivial Fock vacuum into an infinite set of…
In three-dimensional case, we consider two classical operators: Schrodinger operator and an operator in the divergence form. For slowly-decaying oscillating potentials, we establish spatial asymptotics of the Green's function. The main term…
A gauge theory with an indefinite metric without negative probabilities is given by extending quantum mechanics, where a general metric is introduced, and the invariance under the general linear transformation is imposed on the space of…
We study the Luttinger-Schwinger model, i.e. the (1+1) dimensional model of massless Dirac fermions with a non-local 4-point interaction coupled to a U(1)-gauge field. The complete solution of the model is found using the boson-fermion…
We consider the covariant quantization of generalized abelian gauge theories on a closed and compact n-dimensional manifold whose space of gauge invariant fields is the abelian group of Cheeger-Simons differential characters. The space of…
The inverse eigenvalues of the Dirac operator in the Schwinger model satisfy the same Leutwyler-Smilga sum rules as in the case of QCD with one flavor. In this paper we give a microscopic derivation of these sum rules in the sector of…
